 Is a word we use everyday
 Most the time we use it in the wrong way
 Now you can look the word up, again and again
 But the dictionary doesn't know the meaning of friends
 And if you ask me, you know, I couldnt be much help
 Because A friend is somebody you judge for yourself
 Some are ok, and they treat you real cool
 But some mistake kindness for bein a fool
 We like to be with some, because they're funny
 Others come around when they need some money
 Some you grew up with, around the way
 And you're still real close too this very day
 Homeboys through the Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall
 And then there's some we wish we never knew at all
 And this list goes on, again and again
 But these are the people that we call friends

 When we first went out together, we barely knew each other
 We had no intentions, on becoming lovers
 But in no time at all, you became my girl
 Me and you, one on one, against the world
 Talkin on the telephone for hours at a time
 Or else I was at your house, or you was at mine
 Then came the arguements and all kinds of problems
 Besides making love, we had nothing in common
 It couldnt last long because it started out strong
 But I guess we went about the whole thing wrong
 Cause out of nowhere it just came to an end
 Because we became lovers before we were friends

 You say you and your girlfriend were so tight
 You took her out with you and your guy one night
 She even had a set of keys to your home
 And you shared mostly everything you owned
 But as she shook your hand, she stole your man
 And it was done so swift, it had to be a plan
 Couldn't trust her with cheese, let alone your keys
 With friends like that you don't need enemies
 You wonder how long it was all going on
 And your still not sure if your man is gone
 You say, well if she took him he was never mine
 But deep inside you know that's just another lie
 And now you're kinda cold to the people you meet
 Cause of something that was done to you by some creep
 But nevertheless, I'll say it again
 That these are the people that we call friends
